Exhaustion/ burnout

I'm really struggling at work at the moment. It's been like this for nearly a year. About an hour into cleaning I feel really exhausted, weak, everything is such an effort, I get a congested chest feeling, flutters in heart & beating feeling, I'm hot & sweaty with tightness in chest. I manage yo just keep going. I have to sit down quite frequently then I feel a bit better but it soon starts again. 

anyone any suggestions.

thank you

    There are lots of things that can cause symptoms like these. So your best bet is to see a doctor. It could be anything from something physical to something mental. Unfortunately the only way to find out is to speak to a doctor so they can run some tests.

    Hi,

    Has any thing changed within the last 12 months or so, such as your job, any medication changes, house move. Something may have triggered your symptoms.

    Mike.
